PRETTY KITCHENS,

There is no objection to a pretty
kitchen, or to girl filling one up with
bric-a-brac, if she keeps it free from
dust. A kitchen to those who do the
work in it is the living room, and why
should it not be made convenient and
pretty2 If the kitchen is q comforta-
BILE, cherry room, most girls will take q
pride in keeping it SO. Give them pink
colored tissue paper for the shelves, If
they wish it, and fancy lamp-shade to
rest by after the kitchen is tidied up
for the night. See, too, that they have
convenient utensils to cook with, good
clothes-wringer, and plenty of clothes
pins, and good stove. It will pay you
well to look after these things in the
good wholesome dishes that will come
on the table we'll cooked. Many girls
have to do with makeshifts that you
would not think possible for yourself to
use-a broken wringer, tub without
handles, or a washboiler or teakettle
with rag run through hole to pre-
vent leaking. No girl likes to ask for
repairs, and oftentimes the mistress is
too careless to look we'll after the little
thinks of her kitchen. detroit Tri-

Down in the Texas country some
warm afternoon you ride out on the
prairie in your shirt-sleeves to hunt up
the ranch horses. You swear as you
fan the mosquitoes out of your face
with your hand. By and by you see .
blue line along the northwestern hori-
zon, and feel little breath of fresh air
Just enough to make you feel good.
Then, If you are not tenderfoot, You
quit hunting horses and hunt your
ranch. In about seventeen seconds
more you are riding dead heat for
headquarters, holding your hat on,
while wind thirty-seven and half
degrees colder than zero is blowing the
nails out of your horses shoes. A
norther is upon you.
In Montana some morning you find
the temperature about fifty degrees be-
low zero, You have couple of miles
to travel You put on fur cap, fur
mittens, buffalo overcoat and get into
a sleigh, wrap yourself up in six buffalo
robes and start out. By and by you
see blue streak along the horizon in
the northwest. You feel q breath of
air, and in fifteen seconds you have
pulled off your overcoat, are swinging
on with all your might to your useless
buffalo robes, which the wind is blow
ing to tatters, and as you drive at q
1 :0Sa gait to reach home with your
sleigh before the snow is all gone, you
look around to see if the wild roses are
in bloom. A chinook is upon you. We
get all our chinooks from the north
west, just as you do you northers. Our
bad weather we get from the east and
southeast-from our neighbors over in
Dakota. I feel like remarking, too,
that our sister territory always has in
stock heavy supply of badly-dam-
aged weather, and never fails to ship us
an invoice when the air currents are
from the right direction. --Mo9ata1aa

Effects az SaIicrlic Acid.

The committee Of the Academic de
Medicine has had the matter of sali-
cylic acid-now SO much used to pre-
vent fermentation in food products
under consideration, and in report
recently made says:
TT being we'll established by medical
observation that feeble and prolonged
daily doses of salicylic acid and its de-
rivatives can cause considerable trouble
to the health of certain persons who
are sensitive to those forms of drugs,
particularly old people and in those
whose venal or digestive functions are
no longer In perfect order, therefore
the addition of the salicylates to liquid
and solid ailments will not be per
mitted."

Jay 8ould,s BlunderDuss.

A German once called at the Office Of
Mr.. Morosini and inquired for Mr..
Gould. This man had invented q new
method of churning butter. The In
vention consisted of an immense copper
| syringe, about two feet long and SIX
inches in circumference. His idea was
| to supply the great American public
with the means of churning their own
butter, and thus making every house
hold happy. The cream was to be
placed within the syringe and then put
into the owners pocket. The constant
walking during the day was supposed to
agitate the cream sufficiently to form
butter; failing in this, however, a few
rapid movements of the plunger would
answer the purpose. This could be
done by gentleman when leaving
home for business in the morning, and
when he returned at night he would
have two pounds of fresh butter that
would astonish the natives. The idea
was certainly economical as well as
novel.
On entering the Office the man met
Mr.. Morosini, who asked him his bust
ness. The German replied that he had
perfected great invention, and desired
to show it to Mr.. Gould. The gentle
man in question was standing close by,
and on hearing his name mentioned he
stepped forward to the pigeon-hole in
the office. The outer room at that
time was divided by partition in which
was pigeon-hole, and through this
visitors were interviewed. With wave
or his hand Mr.. Morosini referred the
stranger to Mr.. Gould. After looking
at the railroad magnate in silence for
moment, the man suddenly made q
dash with his right hand into his vest
pocket and drew forth this odd butter
churn or syringe, which he pointed in
confding manner and with the bland
est of smiles toward the two gentle
men. Visions of an assassination cross
ing their minds, both Mr.. Gould and
Mr.. Morosini simultaneously dropped
tremblingly to the floor, beneath the
pigeon-hole, and in the most heart
rendering tones shrieked: "Please
shoot high"
The wounded feelings of the innocent
German may be imagined when he dis
covered that his great invention was
mistaken for q blunderbuss. -Ne,u

The new liquor law which has just
gone into effect in Maine, says an
Augusta correspondent, has more teeth
in it than any temperance Legislation
since the enactment of the original
Maine law" The severity of it's pro.
visions is such that for the first offense
it takes away the discretion of the court
and makes the penalty for selling even
glass of sweet cider for tipping pur-
poses imprisonment as well as fine.
There is so much grip in it that the
payment of United States tax is made
prima facie evidence of intent to sell,
so that, instead of being q protection,
it really makes the party paying the
Government tax violator of the law.
There is good deal of feeling among
the dispensers of the bibulous fluid over
the new law. There are over LOO
persons in Maine who pay an annual
special tax as retail liquor dealers, for
which the United States Government
gets some $27, 200. In Bangor there
are 100 places which pay Government
tax, six of which number take out q
license as wholesale dealers. A Port
land lawyer says: "A lawyer must be
. bold one who would declare that any
conceivable provision in Maine liquor
law would be adjudged unconstitutional
SO long as the Governor has no hesita-
ton in approving . bill which imposes
sixty days imprisonment upon the sale
of the first glass of new cider contain
ing no alcohol This is the forty-irst
liquor law which has been enacted since
the original prohibitory law. of 1851
forty-one laws in thirty-six years-and
the promoters of said legislation are no
better satisfied than when they began

Gambetta's Duel with N. De Fourtou.

Gambetta's Duel with N. De Fourtou.
The cause of the duel was an excla-
nation Of Gambetta during the sitting
of the Chamber of Deputies on Novem-
Der Is, 1878-"It is q ie!" These
words were addressed to M. De Four
tou, who was making speech to the
Chamber.
After having given the lie to M. De
Fourtou, Gambetta left the sitting, and
went to look for M. Clemenceau in the
lobbies of the Chamber, Gambetta
asked M. Clemenceau to act as his
second, but the latter refused, not
caring to accept the responsibility of
such an affair, for, naturally, had any
thing serious happened to Gambetta,
the seconds would have had to bear the
brunt of public blame. However,
Gambetta insisted. "If you refuse"
he said to M. Clemenceau, II shall not
be able to find a single man to serve as
my second. Theirs fought duel I
must fight too" Finally NJ. Clemen-
ceau accepted, and it was he who ar
ranged the whole affair, charged the
pistols, and gave the word of COM
mand-"Feu! ne, deaIr, trOis! The adj
versaries were placed at distance of
thirty PAGES in an open space on the
plain of Chatillon, where there was
neither tree nor house nor any object
in sight of Importance enough to guide
the aim; the silhouettes of the COM
batants stood out against perfectly
clear sky, for the report that the duel
was fought in fog is untrue; the
pistols were charged with the regular
quantity of powder and with regular
bullets by M. Clemenceau himself. M.
Clemenceau chose pistols as the arms
of his principal, for the simple reason
that he did not consider Gambetta to
have sufficient agility to fight with
swords. As for distance, M. Clemen-
ceau had at first proposed thirty-five
PAGES, but the seconds of M. De Four.
tou suggested thirty. Gambetta him
self would have fought at even five OF
ten PAGES, had his seconds ordered him
to do SO; but there was an excellent
reason for separating the adversaries
by as great distance as possible, namely,
the fact that Gambett& was very large
man and M. De Fourtou q slender man.
Throughout this duel Gambetta
acted with perfect GOODNESS. On the
eve of the engagement NJ Clemenceau
gave him some hints as to the correct
manner of using his arm and aiming.
The next morning, when he went to
carry him to the rendezvous, he found
Gambetta sitting at his window and
calmly shooting with revolver at the
sparrows in his garden. While they
were riding out to Plessis- Piquet,
Gambetta wished to smoke, but M.
Clemenceau prevented him, saying
that the tobacco would make his hand
unsteady. Gambetta's first words,
when the duel was over, were, "Ahl
